New Bedford, MA

October – November 2018

Hanna Vogel is an artist who lives and works in New Bedford, Massachusetts who received her BFA in Ceramics with high distinction from California College of Arts and her MFA in Ceramics from University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth. She has been awarded honors and scholarships throughout California and Massachusetts.Hanna has held solo, juried and groups exhibitions in Massachusetts, Illinois and California. While holding exhibitions she has gotten professional experience by becoming a co- author, interning and instructing.

Hanna uses craft-based materials and techniques in sculptural ways to evoke growth, decay, and the tenuousness of the built environment. Her work addresses aspects of physical existence on the edge of potential destruction. The techniques that she uses – hand-built clay, woven basketry, and handmade paper – all reference the body in their labor-intensiveness and in the degree to which they require the direct physical involvement of the maker.
